Battle Of The Omega 3 Acids: Krill Or Fish Oil

EPA and DHA are called “essential” fatty acids that appear in fish and krill oil. Our bodies can’t make them on their own so we need to get them from our food. These essential fatty acids are necessary for proper functioning, particularly for our brain.

DHA plays a very important role in your nervous system functioning, provides anti-inflammatory benefits, and is associated with improved mood, insulin sensitivity, muscle growth, and better sleep.

Often, health buffs argue about whether it’s better to take plain fish oil or krill oil, the premise being that the fatty acids in krill oil are somehow better for us.
